| david_j_r | Can anyone help me generate a set of OpenPGP keys? | 14:36 |
| david_j_r | The instructions on the wiki are for Ubunutu: "System > Preferences > Passwords and Encryption Keys" doesn't exist in Lubuntu | 14:36 |
| david_j_r | URL here: https://launchpad.net/+help-registry/openpgp-keys.html | 14:37 |
| MrChrisDruif | david_j_r; might this help? https://www.riseup.net/en/howto-gpg-keys#using-the-linux-command-line | 14:43 |
| MrChrisDruif | Just open LXterminal from the "start"-menu | 14:44 |
| MrChrisDruif | (or whatever they called it) | 14:44 |
| david_j_r | yes - that's a big help, thanks! | 14:45 |
| MrChrisDruif | You're welcome | 14:46 |
| david_j_r | I couldn't work out why "gnupg" wouldn't start in terminal, when that is the package that Lubuntu has installed | 14:46 |
| david_j_r | I see it's "gpg". ;) | 14:46 |
| MrChrisDruif | Just remember, if something if distribution specific (eg. gnome) try searching the web for terminal commands. Those are DE independent most of the time | 14:47 |
| MrChrisDruif | And your looking for pgp? | 14:47 |
| david_j_r | not really - | 14:47 |
| MrChrisDruif | "Generate an OpenPGP Key pair using GPG" | 14:47 |
| david_j_r | I just want to be a good citizen and sign up for the Ubuntu Code of Conduct: https://launchpad.net/codeofconduct | 14:47 |
| david_j_r | requires keys :/ | 14:48 |
| MrChrisDruif | Hmmhmm | 14:48 |
| david_j_r | is a bit complicated for a non "key" user like me - | 14:48 |
| david_j_r | too bad there isn't an openid "signature" option available! | 14:48 |
| david_j_r | It looks like I need a "key-ring" to import any generated key to Launchpad: https://launchpad.net/+help-registry/import-pgp-key.html | 14:52 |
| david_j_r | but does Lubuntu *have* a "keyring"? I haven't spotted one. | 14:53 |
| MrChrisDruif | Not that I know of | 14:55 |
| MrChrisDruif | Unit193; you around? | 14:56 |
| david_j_r | Curious (to me): Synatpic shows me that "ubuntu-keyring" is installed, but when I invoke it from command line in LXterminal, I get "ubuntu-keyring: command not found". | 14:57 |
| david_j_r | But maybe it doesn't do what I think it does. | 14:59 |
| david_j_r | Sigh! | 14:59 |
| MrChrisDruif | "ubuntu-keyring - GnuPG keys of the Ubuntu archive" | 15:00 |
| david_j_r | Yep. | 15:00 |
| david_j_r | Just going to step out for a bit - will return to this later. Thanks again for your help! | 15:01 |
| MrChrisDruif | david_j_r; http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=834162&postcount=5 | 15:03 |
| MrChrisDruif | Hmm, gpg.. | 15:04 |

| Unit193 | Seahorse is a handy keyring, worked back a few versions too | 16:27 |
| MrChrisDruif | david_j_r; <Unit193> Seahorse is a handy keyring, worked back a few versions too | 16:29 |
| david_j_r | MrChrisDruif: LOL - was just going to say - I just installed this: http://projects.gnome.org/seahorse/ | 16:33 |
| david_j_r | Works nicely! | 16:33 |
| MrChrisDruif | I just repeated what Unit193 said ^_^ | 16:33 |
| david_j_r | Also did some diceware ;) | 16:33 |
| david_j_r | Took longer to generate keys than I expected, but all good | 16:34 |
| Unit193 | Heh, great | 16:36 |
| david_j_r | Seemed like the handiest thing for me to use from the options listed on the "HowTo" page. | 16:36 |
| david_j_r | Good to know it was a decent choice. ;) | 16:36 |
